Patient adherence to antiviral treatment for chronic hepatitis B and C: a systematic review
Lieveld F, et al. Chronic hepatitis B and C are a common medical problem. For chronic hepatitis B patients with an indication for treatment, they will need to take antiviral agents for a long period of time if not life long. However, chronic hepatitis C patients have a finite course of treatment that currently ranges from 24 to 48 weeks.
